Blocking Spam Bounce Emails

[TheStinger]

I put a post in the general thread but no-one seems to frequent that, so here I am.

Does anyone know how to get rid of or block the spam emails that reach your inbox, read your address book and inbox mail addresses and then bounces itself off to them?

You can't block the address because they come from a random address everytime. Even when they get redirected to my spam box it still manages to do it. The email doesn't appear malicious as my spyware and virus checkers don't pick anything up.

I am using the Windows Live Mail thingy for my two hotmail accounts. I deleted my entire address book and also deleted the accounts from WLM and then re-applied them. Still doesn't help.

Anyone have a remedy for this?

use a program mailwaser pro

this is the best program out there, how it works is that it reads your email subject heading off of your email accounts, you can then decide which ones you want to recieve.

you can blacklist spam email without getting it delivered to your inbox, it will automatically mark these for deletion next time you recieve them. i have used it for yrs and spam email i get is minimal.

heres the link for the program :http://www.firetrust.com/products/mailwasher-pro
rule 1: check your email through mailwasher, after sorting out the emails then click process mail. be carefull when starting to use it that you dont blacklist friends, add them to the safe sender list.
